My Conclusion on Drip Tips

[B Pak]

Drip tips are an obvious concept to simplify drip vaping. It gets a little annoying having to always remove the empty cartridge and wipe it clean just to add another drop or two of liquid.. which only lasts a few drags before having to repeat the whole process over again.

Because of this I decided to buy a drip tip from GP (and also because they are only a dollar). My viscous 100% VG liquids never make it all the way down the tip. Even with a slight blow down the barrel, all of the liquid never makes it onto the bridge. I mean, yeah it works, but it isn't any more convenient than pulling off the stock cart.

Also, the straight-shooter design of drip tips do less than the regular carts to cool down the vapor, making each drag a bit harsher than normal. I find that hits from a regular cart are much more satisfying.

Also, I was using my tip while just kicking back on the bed (lying down), and some juice slid right into my mouth when i took a hit because of gravity. A normal cart would have prevented that from happening.

I'm not disappointed with my purchase, I had to find out first hand. I know there are higher quality tips out for ridiculous prices, however I don't see how they can work drastically better.

I conclude that drip tips are "cool", but definitely not worth it. Even at $1.00.

I have tried, and been converted to, the glass drip tips. Juice slides right down and the drag is very smooth.

TheEcig.com is proud to announce the FIRST EVER PYREX DRIP TIP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!They have been hand blown by are partners at Garduno Glass!!! The most comfortable drip tip out there on the market!! The liquid drips easier and the airflow is phenome

I use a stainless steel drip tip and love it.

Glass!? I guess that would work better than plastic/metal.. Sounds a bit dangerous though haha. Thanks maybe I'll try 'em out one day.

read good stuff about Super-Ts
I'm a drip-tip convert myself.

I loved my cartomizers, but when I tried a drip tip I never looked back... I even drip while driving now.

While you don't always get what you pay for, you almost always pay for what you get.

wise words.....

and pay you will...
- for the Pyrex glass d/t... $15.00ea. Do they work? YES...
1. juice slides down faster (some of the narrower ones, get hung up at atty tip, but a a quick breath/blow... gone
2. never (almost) juice back up in the mouth

-and the Super T contoured in either SS or Delrin.. work? Yep... extra wide mouth and core.

You can use a bottle / needle set up and drip... there are a couple options out there.

I like real loose d/t's that come off easily since i don't like dripping into the d/t (unless they are one of the 2 above), just pull em off and drip right into the atty.... best bet.

IMO dripping beats any "feeder pv" system out there... taste, amount (consistency).

I've tried a few different drip tips. Including the premium type.

What's ironic is the one that works the best is a stock round cartridge (not the whistle type), drilled and reamed out.

I use a dremel tool to do it.

The airflow is superior, I never get any juice in my mouth and the hole is easy to hit.

 

[B Pak]

I hear what you're saying NCC, but I actually heard a lot of good stuff about the Heavens Gift DT I got..

 

[B Pak]

And isn't the airflow on a drip tip a little too "superior"? I find that it doesn't "milk" as well and it's kinda harsh too

Interesting...I've never had an issue with thick or thin juices...keep trying! Bore your hole open some more, or get a tried and true version that veterans use.

The pyrex tips are wonderful. They are coming out with the 306 very, very soon. For me, they are worth the price. I have now purchased 4. One of each clear and blue in tapered and non tapered.
John at theecig.com sent me the beta 306 drip tip with my last order and it is gonna be a very nice addition for the 306 atomizer.

I don't have the glass drip tip, so cannot comment on that one. I do have several other types and styles, and for the best flow of juice and rapidly, I found the shorty delrin (not curved) works best for the less expensive drip tips. No juice gets stuck, you can actually see all the way through it. Much like the idea of drilling up there. ^^^
